Christopher Plummer’s birth chart

What his chart says about him

1. Who he was

   ☉Sun in Sagittarius, the Explorer

   Restless in the best way. Wants to see more, learn more and say exactly what is on his mind. He kept rebuilding himself to fit what life asked, and control was the hardest thing to give up.

   The Sun quincunx Pluto (close at 2.1°)

2. What he needed

   ☽Moon in Taurus, the Hearth

   Even-tempered and hard to unsettle. Needs calm, touch and things that stay the same.

3. How he loved

   ♀Venus in Sagittarius, the Adventurer

   Loves openly and with good humour. Needs freedom, honesty and someone to explore the world with. He loved the unusual: original taste, unexpected friendships and a style all his own.

   Venus trine Uranus (almost exact at 0.6°)

4. How he thought

   ☿Mercury in Capricorn or Sagittarius, the Planner

   Practical, measured and dryly funny. Trusts experience over theory and gets to the point. Serious thoughts: he said less than he knew, and what he said held up.

   Mercury conjunction Saturn (close at 1.4°) · For a birth before 9:42 a.m., his Mercury was in Sagittarius.

5. What drove him

   ♂Mars in Sagittarius, the Champion

   Adventurous and principled. Throws himself behind big causes and what is right. Force and restraint kept trading places, and he learned when to let go.

   Mars quincunx Pluto (almost exact at 0.8°)

6. The shape of his chart

   Neptune is the hub of his chart: it takes part in four of its aspects, more than any other body, so his imagination touched everything else in it. In his chart, fire and earth signs hold the most planets: instinct and enthusiasm, and the practical and the solid.
